Today brings the legendary British comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The retelling of the story of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table from the troupe that included great minds such as John Cleese, Terry Gilliam and Eric Idle left behind plenty of quotables. “‘Tis but a scratch,” “I’m not dead,” and “She turned me into a newt…I got better” are but a few priceless lines that made this cult classic a more-than-30-years-and-still-going-strong mainstay. 11:55 p.m. today and tomorrow. River Oaks Theatre, 2009 West Gray. For tickets and information, call 713-866-8881 or visit www.landmarktheatres.com. $6 to $9.
Fri., Aug. 1, 11:55 p.m.; Sat., Aug. 2, 11:55 p.m., 2008
